Dear Mr. Hubble:
In the course of correspondence
with me Gerald Heard has suggested that a
book of memoirs from yourself would be extremely interesting. I thoroughly agree.
In this connection you will remember that quite a while ago I wrote you
suggesting that you describe your experience
at Mount Wilson Observatory and give the
layman an idea of the workings of the telescope as well as the discoveries made as
the result of its use. Your memories
could include all this as well as touching
on various other phases of your life and experience .
I do hope that you will consider
the project.
Sincerely yours,
Mr. Edwin Hubble
Mount Wilson Observatory
Pasadena 4, Calif.
Cass Canfield...UNH
P.S. Forgive me for not signing this letter
personally but I must leave the office early.
